Keep up the good work

"At least 10 journalists have been killed by the U.S. military. And according to reports I believe to be true, journalists have been arrested and tortured by U.S. forces. -Easton Jordan
In November, Easton Jordan offered the above murderous assessment of America's military to a group of Portuguese journalists and got away with it.
On Jan. 27, he apparently made a nearly identical outrageous, unfounded accusation at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland. This time he got caught, not by his colleagues in the so-called mainstream media but by 'bloggers' in attendance. "

It nearly impossible to find a news story on this firing. When you do it all about how "bloggers" 'took this reporter down'. Try finding the story about his comment or CNN's response to his outrageous comments over the course of this war. Luckily our very own Chicago Tribune has a good story, but can't leave out how Bloggers are Right-wing hacks. Sure you can find commentaries in the likes of
The Washington Times, but where are the journalist, why did it take bloggers at a forum full of journalist to hold this man accountable.
Anybody remember what they did to Trent Lott, lets hold them to the same standards
